I love leaves and was tempted to get the masking tape out to make background patterns with the leaves. For this 8 x 4 gatefold card, I stamped the leaves using Memento Danube Blue onto blue card and just kept repeat stamping and masking until I had covered the panels. I added a little shading around the edges with Denim Adirondack ink before mounting the panels onto the card and adding a sentiment from the Pretty Poppies stamp set.
I have more samples to share later in the week and remember to pop over to the DT blog by clicking the link in my side bar and the Chocolate baroque on line store to see what special offers you can grab.

This is just amazingly 'you' & I can certainly relate to the quickening thrill of seeing these images. Adore the monochromatic scheme you used & love the leaves layering. Gorgeous start to my weekend - thank you, hope you have a lovely one.
